しかし、この従来のものでは、深夜時間帯から追い焚き実績を考慮した高温の沸き上げ温度で沸き上げるため、深夜時間帯の沸き上げ開始時刻から一般的に夕方以降の浴槽水の追い焚き運転の開始までの長時間の間に多量に放熱してしまい、熱ロスが大きく非効率的であるという問題があった。   However, in this conventional system, since boiling is performed at a high boiling temperature in consideration of the renewal performance from midnight hours, generally the bath water replenishment operation after the evening is started from the midnight boiling start time. A large amount of heat was dissipated in the long time until the start, and there was a problem that heat loss was large and inefficient.

本発明は、上記課題を解決するため、湯水を貯湯する貯湯タンクと、前記貯湯タンク下部に給水する給水管と、前記貯湯タンク上部からの湯を給湯する給湯管と、前記貯湯タンク内の湯水を加熱する加熱手段と、前記貯湯タンク下部と前記加熱手段と前記貯湯タンク上部とを接続する加熱循環回路と、前記加熱循環回路途中に設けられた加熱循環ポンプと、前記貯湯タンク内の湯を熱源として浴槽水を加熱する風呂熱交換器と、浴槽と前記風呂熱交換器とを浴槽水が循環可能に接続する風呂循環回路と、前記風呂循環回路途中に設けられた風呂循環ポンプと、前記貯湯タンク内の湯水の温度を検出する貯湯温度センサと、前記風呂循環ポンプを駆動して浴槽水を加熱する追い焚き運転を行わせる追い焚き制御手段と、前記追い焚き運転を実施した最先の時刻を過去複数日分記憶する追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段と、深夜時間帯に前記加熱手段と前記加熱循環ポンプを駆動して沸き上げ温度まで加熱した湯を前記貯湯タンクに貯める沸き上げ運転を行わせる沸き上げ制御手段と、過去の給湯実績などから前記沸き上げ温度を決定する沸き上げ温度決定手段と、前記貯湯温度センサの出力に基づき沸き増しが必要か否かを判別する沸き増し判別手段と、深夜時間帯以外の時間帯に前記沸き増し判別手段が沸き増し必要と判別すると前記加熱手段と前記加熱循環ポンプを駆動して沸き増し温度まで加熱した湯を前記貯湯タンクに貯める沸き増し運転を行わせる沸き増し制御手段と、前記追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段が追い焚き実施時刻を記憶していない場合には、前記沸き増し温度を前記沸き上げ温度決定手段で決定している沸き上げ温度とし、前記追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段が追い焚き実施時刻を記憶している場合には、前記追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段が記憶している追い焚き実施時刻のうち最も早い時刻を判別し、その最も早い時刻よりも一定時間だけ早い時刻を追い焚き温度変更時刻とし、この追い焚き温度変更時刻よりも前の時間帯は前記沸き増し温度を前記沸き上げ温度決定手段で決定している沸き上げ温度とし、前記追い焚き温度変更時刻から所定の時刻までの間は、前記沸き増し温度を前記沸き上げ温度よりも高い予め定められた追い焚き用温度とする沸き増し温度決定手段とを備えたものとした。 In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a hot water storage tank for storing hot water, a water supply pipe for supplying water to the lower part of the hot water storage tank, a hot water supply pipe for supplying hot water from the upper part of the hot water storage tank, and hot water in the hot water storage tank. Heating means for heating, a heating circulation circuit connecting the lower part of the hot water storage tank, the heating means and the upper part of the hot water storage tank, a heating circulation pump provided in the middle of the heating circulation circuit, and hot water in the hot water storage tank A bath heat exchanger that heats the bath water as a heat source, a bath circulation circuit that connects the bathtub and the bath heat exchanger so that the bath water can circulate, a bath circulation pump provided in the middle of the bath circulation circuit, and A hot water storage temperature sensor that detects the temperature of hot water in the hot water storage tank, a reheating control means that drives the bath circulation pump to heat the bath water, and a reheating control means that performs the reheating operation Reheating execution time storage means for storing the earliest time for a plurality of days in the past, and boiling for storing hot water heated to the boiling temperature by driving the heating means and the heating circulation pump in the midnight time zone in the hot water storage tank Boiling control means for performing a heating operation, boiling temperature determining means for determining the boiling temperature from past hot water supply results, and boiling for determining whether or not boiling is necessary based on the output of the hot water storage temperature sensor When the increase determination means and the increase determination means determine that the increase in boiling time is necessary in a time zone other than midnight, the heating means and the heating circulation pump are driven to store hot water heated to the increase temperature in the hot water storage tank. If the reheating control means for performing reheating operation and the reheating execution time storage means does not store reheating execution time, the reheating temperature is set to the reheating temperature. In the case where the boiling temperature determined by the reheating temperature determining means is used and the reheating execution time storage means stores the reheating execution time, the reheating execution stored in the renewal execution time storage means is stored. The earliest time among the times is discriminated, and a time earlier than the earliest time by a certain time is set as the reheating temperature change time, and the boiling temperature is raised in the time zone before this reheating temperature change time. The boiling temperature determined by the temperature determining means is used, and during the period from the time when the reheating temperature is changed to a predetermined time, the reheating temperature is set to a predetermined reheating temperature higher than the boiling temperature. And a boiling temperature determining means.

また、前記追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段は、浴槽水の温度を所定温度以上昇温させる追い焚き運転を行った場合に、その時刻を記憶するようにした。   Further, the reheating time storage means stores the time when a reheating operation is performed in which the temperature of the bath water is raised to a predetermined temperature or more.

また、前記予め定められた追い焚き用温度は、前記沸き上げ温度決定手段で決定された沸き上げ温度に所定温度を加えた温度とした。   Further, the predetermined reheating temperature is a temperature obtained by adding a predetermined temperature to the boiling temperature determined by the boiling temperature determining means.

また、前記予め定められた追い焚き用温度が所定の上限温度を超える場合は、前記所定の上限温度を予め定められた追い焚き用温度とするようにした。   Further, when the predetermined reheating temperature exceeds a predetermined upper limit temperature, the predetermined upper limit temperature is set as a predetermined reheating temperature.

本発明によれば、追い焚き実績のあった時間帯の前の時間帯から沸き増し温度が高い温度に変更されるため、追い焚き運転が開始されるであろう時間帯の直前までは深夜時間帯の沸き上げ温度も含めて比較的低い温度で沸き上げ、沸き増しがされることとなり、追い焚き運転の開始までの間に貯湯タンクから放熱する熱ロスを低減できると共に、追い焚き実績のあった直前では追い焚き用温度で沸き増しされ、追い焚き運転の能力を適切に確保することができるものである。。   According to the present invention, since the boiling temperature is changed to a higher temperature from the time zone before the time zone in which the tracking operation has been performed, the midnight time is until immediately before the time zone in which the driving operation will be started. It is heated and heated at a relatively low temperature, including the boiling temperature of the belt, and heat loss radiated from the hot water storage tank before the start of the reheating operation can be reduced, and the reheating performance has been proven. Immediately before, the temperature is increased at the reheating temperature, and the capability of reheating operation can be appropriately secured. .

また、追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段は、浴槽水の温度を所定温度以上昇温させる追い焚き運転を行った場合に、その時刻を記憶するようにしたので、追い焚き運転での消費熱量が多く、沸き増し温度を高くする必要性があると推測される場合に沸き増し温度が高くされ、追い焚き運転での消費熱量が少なく、沸き増し温度を高くする必要性がないと推測される場合には沸き増し温度は高くされないため、無駄に昇温する機会を抑制することができる。   In addition, when the reheating operation time storage means performs the reheating operation in which the temperature of the bath water is raised to a predetermined temperature or more, the time is stored, so the amount of heat consumed in the reheating operation is large. When it is estimated that there is a need to increase the boiling temperature, when the boiling temperature is increased, the amount of heat consumed in the reheating operation is small, and there is no need to increase the boiling temperature. Since the boiling temperature is not increased, the chance of unnecessarily increasing the temperature can be suppressed.

次に、制御部40内に設けられた本発明の特徴的構成を図2の制御ブロック図に基づいて説明する。   Next, a characteristic configuration of the present invention provided in the control unit 40 will be described based on the control block diagram of FIG.

41はリモートコントローラ34の追い焚きスイッチ38がONされたことを示す信号をリモコン制御部39から受けると、風呂循環ポンプ17を駆動して浴槽水を風呂熱交換器14によって風呂設定温度+α℃まで加熱する追い焚き運転を行わせる追い焚き制御手段である。   When 41 receives a signal indicating that the reheating switch 38 of the remote controller 34 has been turned on from the remote control unit 39, the bath circulation pump 17 is driven to bring the bath water to the bath set temperature + α ° C. by the bath heat exchanger 14. This is a reheating control means for performing reheating operation for heating.

42は追い焚き制御手段41が一日のうち最初に追い焚き運転を実施した時刻t1を直近の複数日分(例えば7日間分)記憶する追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段で、この追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段42は、追い焚き運転において、浴槽水を所定温度(例えば5℃)以上昇温した場合あるいは所定温度以上昇温する必要があると判断した場合に追い焚き運転を実施した時刻t1を記憶するようにしているものである。   42 is a chasing execution time storage means for storing the time t1 when the chasing control means 41 performs the chasing operation for the first time in a day for a plurality of recent days (for example, for seven days). The means 42 stores the time t1 at which the reheating operation is performed when the bath water is heated at a predetermined temperature (for example, 5 ° C.) or higher or when it is determined that it is necessary to increase the temperature at a predetermined temperature or higher. It is what you are doing.

43は給湯温度センサ8や給湯流量センサ9の出力に基づいた給湯実績等の過去所定期間分のデータから沸き上げ温度を決定Taする沸き上げ温度決定手段、44は深夜時間帯にヒートポンプ式加熱手段33と加熱循環ポンプ24を駆動させて沸き上げ温度Taまで加熱した湯を上部から貯湯タンク1に戻して一日に必要な量の湯を貯湯する沸き上げ運転を行わせる沸き上げ制御手段である。   43 is a boiling temperature determining means for determining Ta the boiling temperature from data for a past predetermined period such as the hot water supply results based on the outputs of the hot water temperature sensor 8 and the hot water flow rate sensor 9, and 44 is a heat pump heating means in the midnight time zone. 33 is a heating control means for performing a heating operation in which the hot water heated to the boiling temperature Ta is returned from the upper part to the hot water storage tank 1 to store a necessary amount of hot water by driving the heating circulation pump 24 and the heating circulation pump 24. .

45は深夜時間帯以外の時間帯に貯湯温度センサ11a〜eで検出する貯湯タンク1内の温度分布状態から、貯湯タンク1内の下部に給湯によって流入した水が一定量以上存在することを検知すると沸き増し可能な状態と判断し、沸き増し可能な状態でかつ深夜時間帯の沸き上げ運転および深夜時間帯以外の時間帯での沸き増し運転で一日に必要な量の湯が沸き上げ完了していない場合に、沸き増し運転が必要であると判別する沸き増し判別手段、46は沸き増し判別手段45が沸き増し必要と判別すると、ヒートポンプ式加熱手段33と加熱循環ポンプ24を駆動させて沸き増し温度Tbまで加熱した湯を上部から貯湯タンク1に戻して残りの一日に必要な量の湯を貯湯する沸き増し運転を行わせる沸き増し制御手段である。   45 detects from the temperature distribution state in the hot water storage tank 1 detected by the hot water storage temperature sensors 11a to 11e in a time zone other than the midnight time zone, that there is a certain amount or more of water flowing into the lower part of the hot water storage tank 1 due to hot water supply. Then, it is judged that the water can be heated up, and the amount of hot water necessary for the day is completed in the water heating operation in the midnight time zone and the heating operation in the time zone other than the midnight time zone. In the case where the heating increase operation is not performed, the boiling increase determination means 46 determines that the increase in boiling operation is required. When the increase determination means 45 determines that the increase in boiling is required, the heat pump type heating means 33 and the heating circulation pump 24 are driven. This is a reheating control means for performing reheating operation for returning the hot water heated to the reheating temperature Tb from the upper part to the hot water storage tank 1 and storing the required amount of hot water for the remaining one day.

47は追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段42が追い焚き実施時刻t1を記憶していない場合には、沸き増し温度Tbを沸き上げ温度決定手段43で決定している沸き上げ温度Taとし、追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段42が追い焚き実施時刻t1を記憶している場合には、追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段42が記憶している追い焚き実施時刻t1のうち最も早い時刻t1nを判別し、その最も早い時刻t1nよりも一定時間(例えば3時間)だけ早い時刻を沸き増し温度変更時刻t2として定め、深夜時間帯の終了時刻から沸き増し温度変更時刻t2までの時間帯は沸き増し温度Tbを沸き上げ温度決定手段43で決定している沸き上げ温度Taとし、沸き増し温度変更時刻t2から所定の時刻t3(例えば深夜時間帯の開始時刻としての23時)までの間は、沸き増し温度Tbを予め定められた追い焚き用温度Tnとする沸き増し温度決定手段で、ここでは所定の上限温度(例えばヒートポンプ式加熱手段33の仕様上の上限温度としての90℃)を上限として、沸き上げ温度決定手段43で決定された沸き上げ温度Taに所定温度(例えば5℃)を加えた温度を予め定められた追い焚き用温度Tnとしている。   47, when the reheating execution time storage means 42 does not store the renewal execution time t1, the boiling increase temperature Tb is set to the boiling temperature Ta determined by the boiling temperature determination means 43, and the renewal execution time is set. When the storage means 42 stores the chasing execution time t1, the earliest time t1n of the chasing execution time t1 stored in the chasing execution time storage means 42 is determined, and the earliest time t1n. A time that is earlier than a certain time (for example, 3 hours) is set as the temperature change time t2, and the temperature is increased after the end time of the midnight time zone until the temperature change time t2 is reached. The heating temperature Ta determined at 43 is set, and the heating temperature change time t2 to a predetermined time t3 (for example, 23:00 as the start time of the midnight time zone) A boiling temperature determining means for setting the boiling temperature Tb to a predetermined reheating temperature Tn, where a predetermined upper limit temperature (for example, 90 ° C. as an upper limit temperature in the specification of the heat pump type heating means 33) is set as an upper limit. The temperature obtained by adding a predetermined temperature (for example, 5 ° C.) to the boiling temperature Ta determined by the boiling temperature determination means 43 is set as a predetermined reheating temperature Tn.

<給湯動作>
次に、給湯時の動作について説明する。給湯栓7が開かれると、貯湯タンク1底部に給水管2からの水が流入すると共に、出湯管3から貯湯タンク1上部の高温の湯が流出し、給湯混合弁5によって給水バイパス管4からの水と混合されて給湯管6から流出する。そして、給湯流量センサ9が給湯の開始を検知すると、制御部40は給湯温度センサ8が検知する給湯温度が給湯設定温度と一致するように給湯混合弁5の開度をフィードバック制御して、給湯栓7が閉じられるまで給湯設定温度の給湯が行われる。
<Hot-water supply operation>
Next, operation during hot water supply will be described. When the hot water tap 7 is opened, water from the water supply pipe 2 flows into the bottom of the hot water storage tank 1, and hot water at the top of the hot water storage tank 1 flows out from the hot water supply pipe 3, and from the water supply bypass pipe 4 by the hot water mixing valve 5. It is mixed with water and flows out from the hot water supply pipe 6. When the hot water supply flow sensor 9 detects the start of hot water supply, the control unit 40 feedback-controls the opening degree of the hot water supply mixing valve 5 so that the hot water temperature detected by the hot water supply temperature sensor 8 matches the hot water supply set temperature. Hot water supply at a hot water supply set temperature is performed until the stopper 7 is closed.

このとき、制御部40は給湯に消費された湯量(熱量)を、給湯流量、給湯温度、給水温度等から算出して当日分の給湯実績として積算して記憶するようにしている。そして、制御部40は一日ごと複数日(ここでは7日間)分の積算給湯実績を複数日(ここでは7日間)にわたり記憶するようにしている。   At this time, the control unit 40 calculates the hot water amount (heat amount) consumed for the hot water supply from the hot water supply flow rate, the hot water supply temperature, the hot water supply temperature, etc., and accumulates and stores the hot water supply results for the day. And the control part 40 is made to memorize | store the integrated hot water supply performance for multiple days (here 7 days) over multiple days (here 7 days).

<風呂動作>
次に、リモートコントローラ34の風呂自動スイッチ37が操作された場合の風呂動作について説明する。風呂自動スイッチ37が操作されると、制御部40は、水位センサ19の検出する水位を確認して浴槽15内に残り湯があるか否かを判別し、残り湯がない場合は、湯張り電磁弁21を開弁すると共に給湯混合弁5を風呂設定温度となるように制御して、湯張り設定量の湯張りを開始する。
<Bath operation>
Next, a bath operation when the bath automatic switch 37 of the remote controller 34 is operated will be described. When the bath automatic switch 37 is operated, the control unit 40 checks the water level detected by the water level sensor 19 to determine whether or not there is remaining hot water in the bathtub 15. The solenoid valve 21 is opened and the hot water supply mixing valve 5 is controlled so as to reach the bath set temperature, and the hot water filling of the hot water set amount is started.

給湯流量センサ9が湯張り設定量をカウントすると、湯張り電磁弁21を閉弁した後、風呂循環ポンプ17を駆動して、風呂温度センサ18で検出する浴槽水の温度が風呂設定温度より低い場合は、そのまま風呂循環ポンプ17の駆動を継続して浴槽水の追い焚き運転を行い、浴槽水の温度が風呂設定温度に上昇すると、湯張り完了をリモートコントローラ34で報知する。   When the hot water supply flow rate sensor 9 counts the set amount of hot water filling, the hot water solenoid valve 21 is closed, and then the bath circulation pump 17 is driven, and the temperature of the bath water detected by the bath temperature sensor 18 is lower than the bath setting temperature. In this case, the bath circulation pump 17 is driven as it is, and the bath water reheating operation is performed. When the temperature of the bath water rises to the bath set temperature, the remote controller 34 notifies the completion of the hot water filling.

このとき、制御部40は湯張りに消費された湯量(熱量)を、給湯流量、給湯温度、給水温度等から算出して当日分の給湯実績として積算して記憶するようにしている。   At this time, the control unit 40 calculates the hot water amount (heat amount) consumed by the hot water filling from the hot water supply flow rate, the hot water supply temperature, the hot water supply temperature, etc., and accumulates and stores the hot water supply results for the day.

一方、風呂自動スイッチ37が操作されたときに、浴槽15内に前日の残り湯があった場合は、あるいは追い焚きスイッチ38が操作された場合は、風呂循環ポンプ17を駆動して浴槽水の追い焚き運転を行い、風呂温度センサ18が検出する浴槽水の温度が風呂設定温度+α℃に達すると、風呂循環ポンプ18の駆動を停止して追い焚き完了をリモートコントローラ34で報知する。   On the other hand, when the bath automatic switch 37 is operated, if there is remaining hot water of the previous day in the bathtub 15 or if the reheating switch 38 is operated, the bath circulation pump 17 is driven to drive the bath water. When the temperature of the bath water detected by the bath temperature sensor 18 reaches the bath set temperature + α ° C., the bath circulation pump 18 is stopped and the remote controller 34 notifies the completion of the chasing.

<沸き上げ運転>
次に、沸き上げ運転について説明する。
予め定められた深夜時間帯の開始時刻になると、制御部40は、記憶していた過去複数日分の積算給湯実績から翌日の給湯負荷を予測し、翌日の給湯負荷から目標貯湯量を算出し、貯湯温度センサ11a〜eで検出する現在の貯湯タンク1の貯湯量を目標貯湯量から減算し、深夜時間帯の間に沸き上げる沸き上げ目標量を算出する。
<Boiling operation>
Next, the boiling operation will be described.
When the start time of a predetermined midnight time zone comes, the control unit 40 predicts the hot water supply load of the next day from the stored accumulated hot water supply results for the past plural days, and calculates the target hot water storage amount from the hot water supply load of the next day. Then, the hot water storage amount of the hot water storage tank 1 detected by the hot water storage temperature sensors 11a to 11e is subtracted from the target hot water storage amount, and the boiling target amount to be heated during the midnight time zone is calculated.

また、沸き上げ温度決定手段43は、制御部40で記憶していた過去複数日分の積算給湯実績と、給水温度センサ10または外気温度センサ32で検出する温度とから沸き上げ温度Taを定める。ここで、過去の積算給湯実績が多い場合や給水温度、外気温度が低い場合には沸き上げ温度Taは高い温度に決定され、逆に積算給湯実績が少ない場合や給水温度、外気温度が高い場合には沸き上げ温度Taは低い温度に決定される。また、ここでは追い焚き実績の有無は沸き上げ温度Taの決定に反映されないようにしているが、追い焚き実績があった場合に、沸き上げ温度Taを少々昇温させるようにすることを妨げるものではない。   The boiling temperature determining means 43 determines the boiling temperature Ta from the accumulated hot water supply results for the past plural days stored in the control unit 40 and the temperature detected by the feed water temperature sensor 10 or the outside air temperature sensor 32. Here, when there is a lot of past accumulated hot water supply results or when the feed water temperature and the outside air temperature are low, the boiling temperature Ta is determined to be a high temperature. The boiling temperature Ta is determined to be a low temperature. Here, the presence or absence of the reheating performance is not reflected in the determination of the boiling temperature Ta. However, when there is a reheating performance, it is difficult to raise the boiling temperature Ta slightly. is not.

制御部40は、この沸き上げ温度Taと、算出した沸き上げ目標量と、給水温度と、予め数値として記憶しているヒートポンプ式加熱手段33の加熱能力とから沸き上げ必要時間を算出し、深夜時間帯の終了時刻から沸き上げ必要時間を遡って沸き上げ開始時刻を算出する。   The control unit 40 calculates the required boiling time from the boiling temperature Ta, the calculated boiling target amount, the feed water temperature, and the heating capability of the heat pump heating means 33 stored in advance as numerical values, and the midnight The boiling start time is calculated by going back the boiling required time from the end time of the time zone.

そして、沸き上げ開始時刻が到来すると、沸き上げ制御手段44は、沸き上げ温度センサ26で検出する温度が沸き上げ温度Taと一致するように圧縮機27、膨張弁28、送風ファン31、加熱循環ポンプ24を駆動して、ヒートポンプサイクルによる沸き上げ運転を開始し、ヒートポンプ式加熱手段33で沸き上げ温度Taに沸き上げた湯を貯湯タンク1の上部から貯湯していく。   When the boiling start time arrives, the boiling control means 44 causes the compressor 27, the expansion valve 28, the blower fan 31, and the heating circulation so that the temperature detected by the boiling temperature sensor 26 coincides with the boiling temperature Ta. The pump 24 is driven to start the boiling operation by the heat pump cycle, and hot water heated to the boiling temperature Ta by the heat pump heating means 33 is stored from the upper part of the hot water storage tank 1.

貯湯タンク1最下部の貯湯温度センサ11eが所定の沸き上げ終了温度以上を検出すると、沸き上げが終了したと判断して、沸き上げ制御手段44は圧縮機27、膨張弁28、送風ファン31、加熱循環ポンプ24を駆動停止処理してヒートポンプサイクルによる沸き上げ運転を停止する。なお、沸き上げが終了する前に深夜時間帯の終了時刻となると、沸き上げ運転を停止するようにしている。   When the hot water storage temperature sensor 11e at the bottom of the hot water storage tank 1 detects a predetermined boiling end temperature or more, it is determined that the boiling has ended, and the boiling control means 44 determines that the compressor 27, the expansion valve 28, the blower fan 31, The heating circulation pump 24 is driven to stop and the boiling operation by the heat pump cycle is stopped. The boiling operation is stopped when the end time of the midnight time zone comes before the boiling is completed.

<沸き増し運転>
次に、沸き増し運転について説明する。
深夜時間帯の終了時刻になると、沸き増し判別手段45は貯湯温度センサ11a〜eで検出する現在の貯湯量を確認し、この貯湯量を給湯負荷に応じて算出された目標貯湯量から減算して不足量を算出し、この不足量と沸き上げ温度Taと給水温度と加熱能力とから、不足分を昼間時間帯に沸き増すのに要する時間(予測沸き増し時間)を算出する。
<Increased operation>
Next, the additional heating operation will be described.
When the end time of the midnight time zone comes, the boiling increase determination means 45 confirms the current hot water storage amount detected by the hot water storage temperature sensors 11a to 11e, and subtracts this hot water storage amount from the target hot water storage amount calculated according to the hot water supply load. The amount of deficiency is calculated, and the time required to boil the deficiency in the daytime period (predicted boiling time) is calculated from the deficiency, the boiling temperature Ta, the feed water temperature, and the heating capacity.

そして、沸き増し判別手段45は、貯湯タンク1の下から2番目に位置する貯湯温度センサ11dが所定温度(ここでは50℃)以下を検知すると、貯湯タンク1内の下部に給湯によって流入した水が一定量以上存在すると沸き増し可能な状態と判断し、予測沸き増し時間が残っていると沸き増し運転が必要と判別する。   When the hot water storage temperature sensor 11d located second from the bottom of the hot water storage tank 1 detects a predetermined temperature (here, 50 ° C.) or less, the boiling increase determination means 45 detects the water flowing into the lower part of the hot water storage tank 1 by the hot water supply. If a certain amount or more exists, it is determined that boiling can be performed. If the predicted boiling time remains, it is determined that the boiling operation is necessary.

沸き増し運転が必要と判別されると、沸き増し制御手段46は、沸き上げ温度センサ26で検出する温度が沸き増し温度Tbと一致するように圧縮機27、膨張弁28、送風ファン31、加熱循環ポンプ24を駆動して、ヒートポンプサイクルによる沸き上げ運転を開始し、ヒートポンプ式加熱手段33で沸き増し温度Tbに沸き上げた湯を貯湯タンク1の上部から追加貯湯していく。この時、沸き増し判別手段45は、沸き増し運転の実行継続時間を予測沸き増し時間から減算していくようにしている。   If it is determined that the reheating operation is necessary, the reheating control means 46 causes the compressor 27, the expansion valve 28, the blower fan 31, and the heating so that the temperature detected by the boiling temperature sensor 26 coincides with the reheating temperature Tb. The circulating pump 24 is driven to start the boiling operation by the heat pump cycle, and the hot water heated up to the temperature Tb by the heat pump heating means 33 is additionally stored from the upper part of the hot water storage tank 1. At this time, the boiling increase determination means 45 subtracts the execution duration time of the boiling increase operation from the predicted boiling increase time.

そして、貯湯タンク1最下部の貯湯温度センサ11eが所定の沸き上げ終了温度以上を検出するか、または予測沸き増し時間の残り時間が0となると、沸き増し制御手段46は圧縮機27、膨張弁28、送風ファン31、加熱循環ポンプ24を駆動停止処理してヒートポンプサイクルによる沸き増し運転を停止する。   When the hot water storage temperature sensor 11e at the lowermost part of the hot water storage tank 1 detects a predetermined boiling end temperature or more, or when the remaining time of the predicted boiling time becomes zero, the boiling increase control means 46 includes the compressor 27, the expansion valve. 28, stop driving of the blower fan 31 and the heating circulation pump 24 to stop the heating operation by the heat pump cycle.

この沸き増し運転における沸き増し温度Tbの決定方法について、図3に示すフローチャートに基づいて説明する。   A method for determining the additional heating temperature Tb in the additional heating operation will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG.

まず、深夜時間帯の終了時刻となると(ステップS1)、追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段42は追い焚き実施時刻t1が記憶されているかどうかを判別し(ステップS2)、記憶されている場合は、単数または複数記憶されている追い焚き実施時刻t1のうち、最も早い時刻の追い焚き実施時刻t1nを選定し(ステップS3)、この最先の追い焚き実施時刻t1nを沸き増し温度決定手段47に出力する。   First, when the end time of the midnight time zone is reached (step S1), the chasing execution time storage means 42 determines whether or not the chasing execution time t1 is stored (step S2). Alternatively, the earliest time at which tapping is carried out is selected from the plurality of times at which tapping is performed (step S3), and the earliest time at which tapping is carried out t1n is increased and output to temperature determining means 47. .

そして、沸き増し温度決定手段47は、ステップS4で最先の追い焚き実施時刻t1nから一定時間(ここでは3時間)だけ早い時刻を沸き増し温度変更時刻t2として算出すると共に、ステップS5で追い焚き用温度Tnを沸き上げ温度決定手段43が決定している沸き上げ温度Taに所定温度を加えて算出する。   Then, the boiling temperature determining means 47 calculates a time that is a fixed time (in this case, 3 hours) earlier than the earliest renewal execution time t1n in step S4 as a reheat temperature change time t2, and retreats in step S5. The service temperature Tn is calculated by adding a predetermined temperature to the boiling temperature Ta determined by the boiling temperature determining means 43.

そして、現在時刻が沸き増し温度変更時刻t2に到達したかどうかを判別し(ステップS6)、沸き増し温度変更時刻t2以前であれば沸き増し温度Tbを沸き上げ温度Taとし(ステップS7)、沸き増し温度変更時刻t2以後であれば沸き増し温度TbをステップS5で算出した追い焚き用温度Tnとするようにしている(ステップS8)。   Then, it is determined whether or not the current time has increased and the temperature change time t2 has been reached (step S6). If the current temperature is before the increase temperature change time t2, the boiling temperature Tb is set as the boiling temperature Ta (step S7). If it is after the increased temperature change time t2, the boiling temperature Tb is set to the reheating temperature Tn calculated in step S5 (step S8).

ここで、沸き増し温度決定手段43は沸き増し温度Tbを決定するのみで、実際に沸き増し運転の要否は沸き増し判別手段45によって決定され、沸き増し判別手段45が沸き増し必要と判別すれば、沸き増し温度決定手段43で決定されている沸き増し温度Tbで沸き増し運転が行われるようにしている。   Here, the additional heating temperature determining means 43 only determines the additional heating temperature Tb, and whether or not the actual additional heating operation is necessary is determined by the additional boiling determining means 45, and the additional boiling determining means 45 is determined to be required to increase. In this case, the heating operation is performed at the heating temperature Tb determined by the heating temperature determining means 43.

そして、現在時刻が所定時刻t3(ここでは深夜時間帯の開始時刻)に到達すると、沸き増し温度決定手段43は沸き増し温度Tbを沸き上げ温度決定手段43が決定した沸き上げ温度Taに戻すようにしている(ステップS9)。   When the current time reaches a predetermined time t3 (here, the start time of the midnight time zone), the boiling temperature determining means 43 returns the boiling temperature Tb to the boiling temperature Ta determined by the boiling temperature determining means 43. (Step S9).

一方、ステップS2で追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段42が追い焚き実施時刻t1を全く記憶していない場合は、沸き増し温度決定手段43は沸き増し温度Tbを沸き上げ温度決定手段43で決定した沸き上げ温度Taに終日設定するようにしている(ステップS10)。   On the other hand, when the renewal execution time storage means 42 does not store the renewal execution time t1 at step S2, the reheating temperature determination means 43 increases the reheating temperature Tb by the reheating temperature determination means 43. The temperature Ta is set all day (step S10).

このように、実際に過去の追い焚き実績のあった時刻の前の時間帯から沸き増し温度が高い温度に変更されるため、追い焚き運転が開始されるであろう時間帯の直前までは深夜時間帯の沸き上げ温度も含めて比較的低い温度で沸き上げ、沸き増しがされることとなり、追い焚き運転の開始までの間に貯湯タンクから放熱する熱ロスを低減できると共に、追い焚き実施時刻の直前(所定時間前)では追い焚き用温度で沸き増しされ、追い焚き運転の能力を適切に確保することができるものである。   In this way, since the boiling point is changed to a higher temperature from the time zone before the time when the actual renewal performance was in the past, it is late at night until just before the time zone when the renewal operation will be started. It is heated and heated at a relatively low temperature, including the boiling temperature in the time zone, and heat loss radiated from the hot water storage tank can be reduced until the start of the reheating operation, and the reheating time Immediately before (predetermined time), the temperature is increased at the reheating temperature, and the capability of reheating operation can be ensured appropriately.

また、追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段42は、浴槽水の温度を所定温度以上昇温させる追い焚き運転を行った場合に、その時刻を記憶するようにしたので、追い焚き運転での消費熱量が多く、沸き増し温度を高くする必要性があると推測される場合に沸き増し温度が高くされ、追い焚き運転での消費熱量が少なく、沸き増し温度を高くする必要性がないと推測される場合には沸き増し温度は高くされないため、無駄に昇温する機会を抑制することができる。   In addition, the reheating time storage means 42 stores the time when the reheating operation for raising the temperature of the bath water to a predetermined temperature or more is performed, so that a large amount of heat is consumed in the reheating operation. When it is estimated that there is a need to increase the boiling temperature, when the boiling temperature is increased, the amount of heat consumed in reheating operation is low, and there is no need to increase the boiling temperature. Since the boiling temperature is not increased, the chance of unnecessarily increasing the temperature can be suppressed.

なお、本発明は上記の一実施形態に限定されるものではなく、発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲で改変が可能なものであり、例えば、風呂熱交換器14を一次二次流路を有した熱交換器に変更して貯湯タンク1の外に配置し、一次側に貯湯タンク1の上部から取り出した湯を流通させる公知の構成としてもよいものである。   In addition, this invention is not limited to said one Embodiment, It can change in the range which does not deviate from the summary of invention, For example, the bath heat exchanger 14 had the primary secondary flow path It is good also as a well-known structure which changes to a heat exchanger, arrange | positions out of the hot water storage tank 1, and distribute | circulates the hot water taken out from the upper part of the hot water storage tank 1 to the primary side.

また、追い焚き実施時刻記憶手段42は、追い焚き実施時刻を30分単位の時刻にまるめて記憶する構成としたり、一時間単位の時刻にまるめて記憶する構成としてもよいものである。   Further, the chasing execution time storage means 42 may be configured to store the chasing execution time by rounding it to a time of 30 minutes, or to store it by rounding it to a time of one hour unit.
